Jimmy Dean is a brand we’ve known and loved, well, as long as I can remember. Its the go-to sausage brand for us. I wish I’d realized before now how much information and great recipes they have on their site!! I’m sharing one of my favorites that is also on the site, although theirs is a bit more involved. I’m lazy so I do shortcuts!

Jimmy Dean is partnering with national nonprofit Share Our Strength to launch the No Kid Hungry Campaign to end childhood hunger in America by 2015! Commitment to community is something that makes me want to support brands more, and this partnership is no exception.

Serve with tortilla chips, crackers or pretzels for a crowd-pleasing delight!
